Human Resources Strategies for Developing Your Organization’s Most Valuable Resource

Overview:

This is a 60-minute self-paced online course. Participants will need a broadband internet connection (Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox are preferred browsers) and computer speakers.

This course introduces strategic human resource management. In a high-stakes environment, like public health, how leaders develop their teams makes all the difference in long-term success. Positive relationships between leaders, emerging leaders, and team members can be transformational. The result is a team competent, confident, and optimistic about their potential and contribution to the vision and goals of an organization. Thus, leaders who employ strategic human resource management contribute to this transformation. In this module, you will learn to reflect on and recharge your leadership development skills for the mutual benefit of your team(s) and the organization.
